Those who entered Manila in the company of father Fray Alonso Rincón, their commissary, were the following: 1. Father Fray Francisco Bibero, a Castilian, an eloquent preacher. 2. Father Fray Diego Martínez, a preacher, from Mancha. 3. Father Fray Antonio Portes, a preacher, and a Castilian. 4. Father Fray Juan de Silva, a preacher, from Andalucía. 5. Father Fray Juan Venegas, a preacher, from Andalucía. 6. Father Fray Pedro de Torres, a preacher, from Andalucía. 7. Father Fray Andrés Verdugo, a reader, from Mancha. 8. Father Fray Martín de Paz, a reader, and a Castilian. 9. Father Fray Baltasar Salcedo, a preacher, and a Vizcayan. 10. Father Fray Juan Basán, a priest, from Andalucía. 11. Father Fray Juan Velasco, a preacher, and a Castilian. |
